About Me

As an older member in site, I have seen this forum go from extreme places of happiness to sunken levels of lackluster holding patterns. But I have stuck it out, with my friends, and family on the site, those people know who they are.

If I am to give anything to this site, I hope it is inspiration, to all the other members, to do something to make it better. I hope I influence people to make this place their own, and so that they can also treat it as a home. This place is one of the few constants in some peoples lives, and we should make it an enjoyable place for every one, from the Admins, to the newest members, we all need to do our part.

Say hello in the shoutbox, post in the forums, play with your new found friends and make connections that last years as I have, as we have. Take advantage of this place, not for your own gain, but to better a great gaming community even greater then this forum itself, and have fun doing it.

The forum has and always will have a special place in my heart. I still log on everyday and see whats up and try to post. That being said, I can't say that I particularly love were it it is right now.

Lets go back to early 2012 when I joined. I'd say that 99% of the regular members that would be in the shout box and on xbox everyday are no longer here. The shoutbox was something that was constantly going and messages would be gone in moments because of how many new messages were being sent. Long running jokes, rivalries, friendships and the like were rampant. PM boxes would have 5 or more messages in them every time you logged in, and notifications wouldn't be one or two, it'd be in the 50's some nights.

The forum has definitely slowed and I am willing to bet that the best days of the forums are behind us.

That being said, it isn't time to jump ship, it isn't time to give up because I still, and I assume many of you since you are here, get some level of enjoyment out of it and the people that are here. This place has made an impact on so many people. Go look at the profiles of older members that haven't posted or been seen in years. Many of them have logged on within a few months or a year. Sure they don't post but they come and check in because of the impact it has had on them.

Who knows, maybe when the new halo launches we will get some more activity and with an effort we can make this place pop again. Regardless of the state of the forum, and how many members are here as long as we continue to enjoy it thats all that matters.

Real talk though, Buck is a fun character, his dialogue, personality and what have you made him fun in ODST. In Halo 5 we got to play with him, and I made it a point to play as Buck whenever I could because he is just that good.
